    Sorry this has nothing to do with boxing before people start posting "THIS HAS NO APPLICATION TO BOXING AND YOU ARE NOT A GOOD FIGHTER".

    Friendly u90kg strongman competition I did last weekend in Cambridgeshire (not the other St Ives!)

    Cringe-worthy mistakes in places (no 2nd dip on the 4th axle press, hand placing on the 2nd sandbag, silly misses on the dumbell before getting it, all cost points and my deadlift setup was pretty poor) but it was great fun and I am improving all the time.

    Impressive preformance for your first contest. Nice one! That frame hold looked tough as ****. Top respect mate :good


    But, in more traditional ESB response to your video: 'This is a boxing forum! We only talk about boxing or porn here! I could flip those sandbags over the bar with one finger!

    Jokes aside. Great showing :good

    He's put in the title that this has got **** all to do with boxing, so if you're still dumb enough to click on it then it's you that shouldn't be in here.


    Nice vid, mate. :good

    Thanks guys glad you liked it.
    And thanks for posting the events!

    It's not my first comp mate, it's probably my 6th or 7th but I have no talent or natural strength so its been a long road to being low-level & reasonable as opposed to "you shouldn't be doing these" level :D

    I posted it in the lounge too, that took a lot of convincing to plug my vid some more didn't it :D

    I came 13 out of 16 if anyone is interested on the standard of the rest of the guys!

    I think people took my comment as a compliant. I enjoyed watching it and just though that people there would enjoy it more that people on the boxing training forum. Plus theres more people there. Some cynical cunst about these days though.:lol:

    No worries DonBoxer, it's just more fun to berate someone for possibly being a **** rather than giving him/her the benefit of the doubt :D

    Sam! Yes I am mate.

    El Puma, thanks buddy :)
